Overwintering Plants In Your Potting Shed
In the early autumn, gardeners begin to listen to the weather forecast with a keen ear for frost warnings. Indeed, some, those who love tropical plants, may well be waiting to hear of temperatures dropping below 12o centigrade. This is the signal that sends men and women all over Ireland
Siting Your Small Garden Shed
“There’s just enough room in that corner for a small garden shed.” These may be the words that lead to an expensive mistake. Unless the garden shed is an eyesore, and if you buy a C & S shed that is something it most certainly will not be, the place
